Hospital Course: This 57-year old white Cuban female was admitted from my office for treatment of severe stomatitis and mild volume depletion secondary to poor fluid and food intake. Initially, the possibility of a erythema multiforme like picture was raised because she did have some skin lesions. However, dermatology consultation with Dr. Kato suggested this was most likely methotrexate related. She was given intravenous leucovorin and high dose prednisone treatment. This along with her intravenous fluids stabilized her condition. At the time of discharge, her oral ulcers had markedly decreased. She could swallow without difficultly and her p.o. intake was adequate.

During hospitalization and after consultation with Dr. Kato, treatment options were discussed with the patient. At this point she has elected to return to treatment with methotrexate lower dose with concurrent use of folic acid.

...The novel Mama Day by Gloria Naylor explores both the intriguing relationship between a young city boy and a culturally confused girl, George and Ophelia, and the simple yet supernatural life of an old, wise woman on an isolated island entirely detached from the civilized world around her. Ophelia, or Cocoa, becomes a link between the chaotic world and hustle and bustle of the mainland and the life of Willow Springs that connects her into a cultural and much different identity. The setting of a novel and the distinct portrayal of the time, place, and environment of what is occurring are often essential to the understanding of the true essence of a novel. In this case, the element of the setting is most important to the novel as a whole, establishing the grounds for the several diverse perspectives and "realities" for Naylor's significant characters. The importance of setting within Mama Day is shown through the vivid description of the island of Willow Springs, the use of New York City as an opposing world to that of the cultural island, and the distinct environment and boundaries that are created regarding the spiritual "other place."
The island of Willow Springs becomes a place throughout the book that is very real and full of life for its inhabitants, even though it realistically does not even exist. The first person narration by George becomes the basis for the outside depiction of Willow Springs, and his lack of knowledge and connection to the island...

...﻿Gloria Steinem: A Rebellious Soul
With her iconic aviator sunglasses on top of her head and an aura of unique sophistication, Gloria Steinem represents the face of feminism. Unconventionally beautiful and cunning, Steinem reveals her rebellious nature through her revolutionary actions; she remains one of the most outspoken and visible symbols of the women’s liberation movement today. Steinem emerges as an arbitrary, unfeigned example that, no matter one’s circumstances, he or she can make a significant difference in the world.
Early life experiences send children on a path with a fixed set of morals and patterns that have a vital impact on their adulthood. Because of the unstable conditions of her home, Steinem was forced to expedite her naïve girlhood. Her parents did not provide a stable household. Steinem’s father had deserted the family, and she was obliged to care for her psychologically ill mother. Receiving nothing but apathy from her mother’s doctors, Steinem became aware of the social injustices against women. Her mother’s experiences, like an axis on a spinning globe, became pivotal to her understanding of the women’s rights. These events have a dominant effect on Steinem’s personal point of view; she did not obtain the necessary elements of a childhood. Instead, she became aware of the lack of social and political equality for women. Although her childhood deemed disadvantageous, Steinem reveals, “I grew up seeing with my own...
